Problem with Frame Relay Setup

[cjthedj45]

Hello Everyone,

I was hoping you maybe able to help with the issue I'm getting setting up multipoint frame relay using packet tracer. I have set up 3 routers in a hub and spoke topology and I have been able to get router1 talking to the hub but cannot get the second to talk to the hub. The routers are all set up on the same subnet. When I do a sh frame relay map on the hub it shows s0/0 as down and status is deleted. I have made sure that their is not a mismatch in lmi and when I run the same command on the 2nd router is shows as up and active. I have tripled check all the ip mappings to DLCI's and everything is how it should be. I'm not sure if it something in the cloud causing the issue. In packet you can set up the DLCI numbers and then you add them into the frame relay to make them active. I did this on the first router and it works lovely however the 2nd router just does not want to play. Does anyone have any suggestions for me.

Many Thanks

Post configs or file maybe someone can point out your error.

On real hardware status deleted means you're using a DLCI that doesn't exist on the frame relay switch..

With out the configs and/or packet tracer file and/or output of some show commands we'd just have to take your word that everything is configured correctly -- and that the "deleted DLCI" does exist in the frame relay cloud -- so it must be a packet tracer bug.

If packet tracer supports it, you could try configuring another router to act as your frame relay switch, rather than using the packet tracer cloud.
